Update: Make that a different party running both the House and Senate. And one issue that is sure to heat up is the debate over H-1B visas. Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates has been speaking out about the need to ease limits on the number of visas granted, or even do away with them. Meanwhile WashTech today sent out a message to members to urge their elected officials to "End Corporate War on High-Tech Workers."

Now that the election is over, I have been wondering what it means for technology, and what effect technology has had on the election.
